Chicago Ramen Algonquin

"First time my boyfriend and I tried this spot. We both REALLY enjoyed & have made plans to come back. I don’t usually like ramen, so I opted for sushi (avocado roll was SUPERB) but I tried the spicy chicken ramen my boyfriend ordered and it was super yummy! I am genuinely looking forward to ordering that next! Service was wonderful! Atmosphere was great and I just loved the spot! Thank you!"

"This was the first place I ever tried Ramen so I have nothing to compare it to. I have dined in 3 times and ordered to go once, and while the food is tasty the service has been unsatisfactory. 1st time we sat at the counter area and it took a long time to place order as well as receive our check when we were done. 2nd time was my pickup order, and I was handed just the appetizer and told that was all I ordered. They did realize the error and I had to wait for my ramen. There isn’t an area to wait and I was not offered a seat while I waited and no apology for the inconvenience. 3rd time was dine in, took a bit to be acknowledged and seated. The cup for my water tasted like dish soap so I asked for a new cup. It took a while to get the new cup of water and it also tasted like soap. Took a while to get the attention of any employee to ask for another cup. 4th time I decided to dine in for my birthday. Took a long time to be acknowledged. Then a bit to be seated. It was busy however there were 2 tables open but no one around to clear them, or greet people entering. We saw a frustrated man waiting to pay for his food. We saw another couple leave after not being acknowledged. When we placed our order we asked for cups for water and did not receive them. We had a hard time getting the attention of someone to bring the cups. Again as my 2 previous times dining in experiences, it took a long time to pay our check. The staff to customer ratio could be improved. Maybe have an employee who is the designated greeter/table clearing and checking in to see if anything is needed after guests receive food would probably improve the dining experience."

"I’m a big foodie and loved eating here. I got chicken ramen and my partner got spicy tsukemen. I’ll be coming back for some more nice warm ramen. Also I know I didn’t take a picture but there was a small menu for crepes! I wanna try that next time"

"Chicago Ramen was an absolute delight! Warm and inviting atmosphere. The staff were incredibly friendly and attentive. They offer a variety of ramen options and other dishes including vegetarian friendly. The broth was rich and flavorful. The noodles were perfectly cooked with - fresh, high-quality ingredients. Definitely recommend getting the extra egg. Will definitely be back here!"

"I loved the food here. Wonderful atmosphere. Nice waiters, the food was high quality and tasty. Would recommend to anyone looking for good ramen and sushi."
